Saturday morning, Brianna and I visited our local comics shop, All Star Comics, to see what they were doing for Free Comic Book Day.

As part of our family vacation at my parents’ place in Houston, I had the great pleasure of taking my daughter to the store that started it all for me: Nan’s Games and Comics.  Growing up in Houston, that was my one stop shop to feed my dual gaming and comics addictions (though gaming won […]
